DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS The goal of this task is to collect operational data from the project, to analyze that data for economic and environmental impacts, and to include the data and analysis in the Final Report. The Recipient shall: • Develop a data collection plan. • Troubleshoot any issues identified. • Collect at least six months of data, including: o Throughput, usage, and operations data o Normal operating hours, up time, down time, and explanations of variations o Feedstock supply summary o Maximum capacity of the new fuel production system in diesel gallon equivalents (DGE) and ordinary units o Gallons of gasoline and/or diesel fuel displaced (with associated mileage information), along with value converted into DGE o Record of wastes from production processes (wastewater, solid waste, criteria emissions, etc.) o Expected air emissions reduction, for example: Non-methane hydrocarbons Oxides of nitrogen Non-methane hydrocarbons plus oxides of nitrogen Particulate Matter Formaldehyde o Duty cycle of the current fleet and the expected duty cycle of future vehicle acquisitions, if applicable o Specific jobs and economic development resulting from this project o Levelized cost of fuel and finished fuel price o Analysis of total facility costs, operation and maintenance costs, marginal abatement costs • Comply with the Petroleum Industry Information Reporting Act (PIIRA) and complete CEC Form M810E and CEC Form M13 on a monthly basis for submission to the California Energy Commission’s PIIRA Data Collection Unit. • Provide a written record of registering with the Low Carbon Fuel Standard and Renewable Fuel Standard programs. • Identify any current and planned use of renewable energy at the facility. • Describe any energy efficiency measures used in the facility that may exceed Title 24 standards in Part 6 of the California Code Regulations. • Provide data on potential job creation, economic development, and increased state revenue as a result of expected future expansion. • Provide a quantified estimate of the project’s carbon intensity values or provide an Air Resources Board approved pathway carbon intensity. • Estimate annual life-cycle greenhouse gas emission reduction. • Compare any project performance and expectations provided in the proposal to Energy Commission with actual project performance and accomplishments. • Collect data, information, and analysis described above and include in the Final Report.
For Product Development Projects and Project Demonstrations Published documents, including date, title, and periodical name. Estimated or actual energy and cost savings, and estimated statewide energy savings once market potential has been realized. Identify all assumptions used in the estimates. Greenhouse gas and criteria emissions reductions. Other non-energy benefits such as reliability, public safety, lower operational cost, environmental improvement, indoor environmental quality, and societal benefits. Data on potential job creation, market potential, economic development, and increased state revenue as a result of the project. A discussion of project product downloads from websites, and publications in technical journals. A comparison of project expectations and performance. Discuss whether the goals and objectives of the Agreement have been met and what improvements are needed, if any.

Program Overview A. Goals of the Choice Neighborhoods Program. The Choice Neighborhoods Program employs a comprehensive approach to neighborhood transformation. The program transforms neighborhoods of concentrated poverty into mixed-income neighborhoods of long-term viability by revitalizing severely distressed public and/or assisted housing; improving access to economic opportunities; and investing and leveraging investments in well-functioning services, effective schools and education programs, public assets, public transportation, and improved access to jobs. Choice Neighborhoods ensures that current residents benefit from this transformation by preserving affordable housing in the neighborhood or providing the choice to move to affordable housing in another neighborhood of opportunity. The purpose of this grant is to implement a Transformation Plan that has been developed through a local planning process and furthers the goals of the Choice Neighborhoods Program. The core goals of Choice Neighborhoods are:
